Recent research by Cognassist highlights significant productivity barriers in UK workplaces, including poor communication and excessive meetings. A staggering 67% of employees feel underproductive, with 83% citing obstacles like inefficient use of individual strengths and lack of skills development. The findings suggest a pressing need for businesses to adapt their management strategies to better leverage employees' cognitive strengths. Nearly 20% report 'quiet quitting' due to unfulfillment at work, with younger employees, particularly Gen Z, feeling this trend more acutely. The evidence points to structural changes as critical for improving workplace productivity.
The UK's productivity problem isn't about employees working harder - it's about businesses working smarter. People want to contribute more, but too often they are held back.
Employees feel barriers to productivity include poor communication, excessive meetings, and lack of skills development, leading to misallocated work and inefficiency.
